Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows, everything that's wonderful, Is sure to come your way

Actually, the funny thing is, after all these years, I've got all these new songs to learn for the show we're doing at Joe's Pub, so it's kind of fun to get down and rehearse new things, and also rethink some of the older songs, how we're going to do them.

I think I turned to writing really just to wake up in the morning and be a musician and to have something to do, and feel like a musician every day even if I wasn't working.

I think the record industry, by and large what's left of it, is still totally homophobic. I think it's much less so in the film industry now, but the record industry, it's always been a man's world.

I just kind of lived my life naturally and did what I wanted to do.

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to.

Don't tell me what to do, don't tell me what to say. And please, when I go out with you, don't put me on display.
